Seminar (Stateless Sovereignties): Dani Ploeger, Anarchist Technologies and Stateless Sovereignty: Tactical Art for the Rojava Revolution

Stateless Sovereignties: Forms, Trajectories, Futures - Hilary Term 2023

The following seminars will be given at 17:00 on Fridays unless otherwise specified

Convenors: Axel Rudi and Faisal Devji


The "Stateless Sovereignties" speaker series seeks to explore the concept and practice of sovereignty outside of its traditional euro- and state centric heritage and definitions, by inviting internationally renown scholars to unpack, pluralize and disassemble the concept with perspectives coming from the margins of the global order. By moving sovereignty beyond its conventional connection to statehood, the series aims to adapt the concept to a new set of circumstances, so that it may better account for the many radical experiments with governance across the world, and the rapid changes impacting peoples' ways of relating to each other.
